As the MSP market is maturing & competition is increasing, it’s critical to stand out. But what is it that makes a world class managed service provider? Join us at our MSP Conference as we shed light on the future of the U.S. managed services industry.

In this exclusive research report we take a look at how vendors, distributors and VARs are adapting to the new world. We explore the new set of skills, processes and tools they will need in order to execute in a way that is not only efficient but also profitable for the long term.

Running a successful managed services business is all about managing relationships. You need to constantly ensure you are meeting your customers' needs or they will take their IT business elsewhere. Read on to find out how.

Start-up Central

Everything you need to know about Europe's brightest tech talent

Our latest project aims to showcase Europe's up-and-coming start-up talent and provide the channel with an insight into what the continent's emerging vendors have to offer.

Start-up Central will profile a range of promising European-based start-ups, and provide a breakdown of each vendor's technology offering, funding figures, headcount, and route to market.

Each profile will be followed by an in-depth Q&A with founders and chief executives from each start-up, as well as lots of comprehensive analysis, features and expert comment on the shape of the European start-up landscape, taking a look at the key challenges - and opportunities - facing emerging vendors that have chosen to call Europe their home.

The idea is to give VARs a comprehensive overview of some of the continent's most promising vendor talent, and an insight into the environment in which they operate.

In addition we have tried to provide an eclectic range of start-ups spanning the entire technology spectrum, and at varying stages of their development - whether that be vendors looking for their first or second round of investment, or those who have already built extensive customer and partner networks.

With the US, Asia, and Israel often being labelled as the places to be for any start-up looking to make a name for itself, we examine how Europe is fostering the world's next tech success story and whether the continent can compete with its better-known innovation rivals.
